We are KC’s runners. Please don’t shoot us

Recently, runners all over the Kansas City metropolitan area have heard from their spouses or other loved ones about a threat that simply shouldn’t exist. My warning came from my daughter on Twitter from Japan: “Scary. Watch out.”

about three teens charged with shooting and killing Christopher Lane, an Australian youngster who was out for a run late last week in Oklahoma. The cause? Reportedly one or more of the suspects were “bored.”

And while that despicable action has received lots of national attention, Kansas Citians already know of a similar incident from last year.
